RN2424(TE85L,F)

Overview

The RN2424(TE85L,F) is a pre-biased PNP bipolar junction transistor manufactured by Toshiba Semiconductor and Storage. It integrates a single NPN biasing transistor with the main PNP device in an S-Mini package. Key electrical parameters include a collector-emitter voltage of -50 V, a continuous collector current of 0.8 A, and a maximum operating frequency of 200 MHz. The component features a power dissipation rating of 200 mW and complies with RoHS standards for lead-free construction.

Feature Summary

• Integrates a built-in NPN bias resistor network to simplify circuit design and reduce component count.
• High current handling capability with a rated continuous collector current of 0.8 A.
• Optimized for high-frequency applications with a cutoff frequency reaching 200 MHz.
• Compact surface-mount packaging designed for automated assembly processes.

Applications

• General-purpose switching circuits requiring compact form factors
• Driver stages for relays or small motors
• Logic interface buffers between microcontrollers and loads
• Power management control sections in consumer electronics

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering code suffix against the manufacturer's latest documentation to ensure correct package type and tape/reel specifications. Confirm RoHS compliance status directly with the supplier. Request official datasheets and quality certificates prior to finalizing procurement orders to guarantee authenticity and traceability.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-current PNP switch with integrated biasing is required in a minimal footprint. Ensure the application voltage does not exceed the -50 V collector-emitter limit. Verify that the thermal requirements align with the 200 mW power dissipation rating under expected operating conditions.

Part Context

This part belongs to Toshiba's RN series of pre-biased transistors, which combine discrete transistors with internal resistors. The TE85L designation indicates the specific S-Mini surface-mount package configuration. This series is engineered to replace multiple discrete components, thereby saving board space and simplifying soldering operations.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official cross-reference lists for direct substitutes. Potential equivalents may include other pre-biased PNP transistors with matching 50V/0.8A ratings and compatible S-Mini footprints from alternative manufacturers.
